Read the detailed description

Prospective, randomized , multicenter study comparing cholecystectomy performed with da Vinci Single Site Instruments™ to multi-port (four ports) laparoscopy.

  • The primary objective of this study is to evaluate cosmesis, patient satisfaction and quality of life after robotic- assisted single incision cholecystectomy procedure using da Vinci Single- Site Instruments™ in comparison to a multiport laparoscopic approach.
  • The secondary objective of this study is to assess the peri-operative clinical outcomes of robotic- assisted single incision cholecystectomy with da Vinci Single - Site Instruments™ in comparison to a multiport laparoscopic approach.
  • The third objective of this study is to evaluate hernia incidence at 1 year and 18 months after surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Cholecystectomy in people with Symptomatic Gallbladder Disease, run by Intuitive Surgical at 8 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Oct 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States, Greece. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cosmesis (time frame: up to 3 months after surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01932216, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
